Jeff Killer Line up as always, thanks for the tip of the one week "Surf Guitar" / "Tiki Oasis" idea.
If you can't afford to do both gigs then do Surf Guitar and hang out at Tiki Oasis car show in the parking lot during the day and see The Kilaueas on Sat and Boss Fink on Sunday, Aug 16 & 17

Val and I are recent converts to the SG101 Festival (been to the last 2) but we already find it a "must do" as part of Tiki Oasis week. If you're on the fence about going, check it out. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

wow, 1000 views.
Now if I could just get 100 tiki people to show up.
That would be awesome.
Last few years has been around 20 or so.
Some from far away, who came early for sg101, then went to tiki oasis.
